caller: very interesting conversation from mr. allen. i would like to say, the attack on the capital was personally offensive. i am a combat veteran from vietnam. in addition to that, that truck load of people the other day, caused me to cancel a purchase because there is an individual who works -- host: can you ask a question or comment on the topic, please? guest: how does a black american know where to send his money if owners of dealerships or members of proud boys? guest: the question -- guest: you have to be a willing buyer to deal with people where you can place confidence, to where you cannot place confidence. that arrangement works. that arrangement protects us. nobody has to apologize because they didn't buy something from someone else. that is a decision the buyer has to make. there is a old, let the buyer beware. be where before -- beware before he buys. that is the real expression we ought to use. host: diane, st. paul, minnesota. caller: good morning c-span. i am 72 years old. what i am hearing here is not in my reality in

i listened to mr. allen. he reminds me of malcolm x. desegregation and integration. i think we made a strong stride in desegregation. magic johnson owns the dodgers. you've got football teams with lack coaches. there's been tremendous strides made in desegregation. i think what he's talking about is integration. there is a lack of integration right now as i see it. the main thing i can point to is joe biden saying you're not lack enough unless you vote for me. he garnered 90% of the black vote, which is racist. host: we are going to take a short rake. when we come back, peniel joseph from the university of texas will join us to talk about the history of juneteenth and the significance of it being recognized as a federal holiday for the first time today. >> c-span has unfiltered coverage of the house committee hearings investigating the attack on the capital. go to c-span.org, our web resource page to watch the latest videos of the hearings. we will have reaction from members of congress and the white house as journalist and authors talk
